Today will be my first full day sans caffeine in years.
I know I am gonna probably suffer some headache but it's gonna be worth it.
Gonna be drinking salty broth from stewed beef neck (including sections of spine) a lot for a few days, that should help.
I got a really bad cramp this morning in my right calf muscle. Once it settled I immediately went to the kitchen to have half a teaspoon of sea salt washed down with water.
Caffeine metabolises to uric acid in the blood, and this thickens the blood and makes it prone to getting slow and congested and causing conditions like gout. I had gout at one time.
One of the difficulties of recovering from alcoholism is that it messes up your kidneys normal elimination triggering. Increasing salt intake helps a lot. It's one of the things that I think caffeine keeps its hooks in people who are alcoholics, because it compensates for the messing up of the natural diuretic process by artificially forcing it.
I'm sure that this broth will help a lot.
After I've chugged through all of it I suppose I'll be dicing up the stewed beef and frying it in butter.
The broth is covered with dripping as well. I am starting to really love beef dripping, it makes my skin soft, my hair soft, it tastes damn good...
But I'm pretty much off all forms of carbs now. I probably will eat potato chips once in a while, hand cut and fried in beef dripping, but it's not a good food anyway. Better to just eat the beef and be happy.
